PHY 416 - Macromolecular Crystallography

[3 credit(s)]
Prerequisites: PHY 222 or PHY 232 or PHY 242/244/244H and MTH 182. CHM 261 is recommended. Macromolecular crystallography is at the heart of the genomics age allowing the determination of the three-dimensional structures of proteins that genomes code for. This information is used to determine and understand their function and develop new drugs. Students learn the fundamentals of diffraction theory, crystal properties and the basic concepts of solving the structures of macromolecular crystals. The course is appropriate for advanced undergraduates majoring in physics, chemistry, biology, or biomedical engineering.
